If you're playing draft, counterpick somebody like Morgana or.. I dunno, I just woke up.Otherwise, just play real conservative like, get CS where you can and have your Jungler/whoever help you chase her off often. Just as long as they don't show up at half health to get gibbed themselves. LeBlanc is infamous for a really strong early/mid game followed by a steep drop in usefulness. If you keep her kills down by just plainly not engaging unless its a gank, she'll have limited strength there too. Basically, just poke and avoid her till mid/late.

So, what do you think of the new masteries and summoner spells? I've got a bunch of pages to remake...

The other thing that's pretty helful is that she's pretty damn vulnerable once she uses her combo, so if you survive the initial combo, stay and fight. You'll have a better chance than trying to run, unless you're 100% sure you can get away.

Definitely some cool new masteries. Bladed armor and Juggernaut are quite nice in defense. Along with the Malphite buffs it might be fun jungling him again with the new masteries. Rammus should be fun too.

Also Weapon Expertise is pretty slick. It seems like there are a lot better options to get an early game damage boost. I'm thinking champs with strong early game might be a bit too dominant with the new masteries.

Edit: Anyone else think Surge gives WAY too much AP? with the 5% bonus mastery and 30% from Rabadon's at level 18 you are looking at over 100 AP for 12 seconds...

If you're playing against leblanc and have the ability to push your lane hard, do so.

Also, banshee's shuts down her damage pretty effectively.

If you have the ability to counterpick her, tanky pushers with some sort of sustain can really shut her down. Galio es numba one vs. Leblanc.

A handful of friends from SWTOR have got me hooked on playing LOL recently. In the past 2 weeks I’ve leveled up to about 14 or 15.

What I’ve been playing so far; Full support Soraka / Janna, Mid Lane Brand, Bottom Carry Caitlyn, and most recently Warwick Solo Top / Jungler.

I’ve tried a match or two with other champions of course but these are the ones that I’ve actually taken the time to try to learn and play multiple times.

Yeah the couple I've come up against in unranked are a cakewalk, but in every high rated stream I've seen him in where people actually know how to play an AD carry and what the current support/adcarry bot meta is all about... just wow.

My friend and I have been playing Warwick Jungler & Varus AD carry together and we get most teams to surrender within 25 minutes from the 2 of us destroying people.

Amusing game just before where I'm smurfing my way around and I come up against a relatively even team. By even I mean that myself (Shen) and Mordekaiser were 3/0/7 and 7/0/3 respectively against their Jax and Nunu by 15 minutes while their Tristana was 4/0 against our Garen up top. Kayle and Ryze were pretty even in mid and our Yi was holding the tower against their 2p top lane cause Garen sucked balls. Apparently a fed Shen and Mordekaiser is greater than a fed Trist. Who knew? Once we started roaming around and ganking slash taking dragon uncontested things got sew out of hand.

I apologise in advance but I need to vent. So for the past the couple days I've not been able to play my jungles as usual and I've been picking up Ashe instead. Yesterday I had 3 amazing games with great support pugs and was able to snowball quite well winning all three. In one I managed to land my favouritist arrow ever, Mundo had come to gank us but we saw it and manged to attack him first whilst his laners made their way round to protect him, he escapes with less than 100 hp and his team back off, I fire off my arrow from around drag, and pick up the kill on mundo and double buffs somewhere around his inner turret - I couldn't believe it. I suppose it goes without saying that after those games luck has to come bite me in the bum.

First game lane went fantastic but in team fights we got stomped late game after the enemy all built really tanky and had shedloads of cc - ending in a surrender. Just finished another game with someone who is even worse than me at support. Bought doran's ring first then spent the first 3 levels standing in the brush doing absolutely nothing to stop graves and nidalee harassing me. Then when he finally showed himself gives away first blood, comes back to stand afk in the brush and takes 3 spears to the face without moving. As if that wasn't bad enough, top and mid weren't able to keep enough pressure on their lanes and I get 4 man ganked two times in a row, finishing 0/9/2.
